Unit 1 How do you study for a test?
Section A

主编:黄冈中学英语集体备课组

Step 1 The introduction

  English is widely used as a foreign language in China. Not all learners are good at it. Do you have trouble learning English? It’s difficult for us to improve English if we don’t have useful learning methods. Luckily, from Section A, we can get a lot of good methods. If we are not good at oral English, we can practice conversations with classmates or friends. If we want to improve our writing skills, we had better keep a diary in English. We can also improve our pronunciation by reading the textbook aloud. Do you have difficulty memorizing new words?You can solve the problem by making flashcards or making vocabulary lists.

有时候看英语电影不是一个坏方法。

难点:

解答:

(1)句中watch English movies是充当主语,名词、代词或者相当于名词词类的词或者短语才可以作主语,所以动词必须变成动名词。
